Gareth,
thanks that works great, I hadn't thought of looking at that dialog box.
In the future I will look at using Applets, thanks for the tip, but for now our use of handhelds and ArcPad is strictly focused on this one application so this modification of the defaults shouldn't cause any problems.
Thanks again.
I will be posting a new thread in this forum about custom toolbar buttons (the next hurdle) and if you have any insight on that I'd really appreciate it.
Cheers,
Matt
